In the India Bike Week, 2024, that will take place in Goa on 6 and 7 December, will see the Pulsar brand of motorcycles from Bajaj Auto make a ‘Definitely Daring’ debut. This will involve a unique experience of riding on a 100 ft. long bridge on the recently introduced NS400Z that is also 24 ft. high. 
Bajaj Auto, in collaboration with Ghost Ryderz (which is claimed to be India’s number one stunt riding team), will provide participants an experience that is unique as well as ‘learning’. For the first time, the two-wheeler major is taking Ghost Ryderz to India Bike Week to provide an opportunity for the participants to stunts such as a ‘wheelie’ or ‘stoppie’ under guidance of experts and in a safe manner. 
The participants at the India Bike Week will also witness signature Pulsar Stunt Shows featuring daring performances with never-seen-before stunts. Bajaj Auto has partnered with Tiivra to offer the participants an opportunity to experience the NS400Z and the all-new N125 on a specialised fun track curated to showcase Pulsar's performance and agility.
“Over twenty-four years, we have built a strong following of ‘Pulsar Maniacs’ across India who love the bike for its daring attitude and sporty DNA. We have always found innovative ways to connect and engage with our loyal customers across India. For our debut at IBW we decided to create moments that define Pulsar’s philosophy of being ‘Definitely Daring.’ At IBW, we’re inviting enthusiasts to experience the thrill, the adrenaline, the pure joy of riding a Pulsar,” said Sumeet Narang, President, Marketing, Bajaj Auto Ltd. 
 

India has turned into a hotbed for electric vehicles and various forms of sustainable mobility, as seen at the Ride Asia and Ride Asia EV expos at Bharat Mandapam. From April 18 to April 20, several auto and manufacturing companies showcased their cutting-edge products and services across halls 4 and 5. A yet-to-be-launched hydrogen bicycle from Yo Byks and colourful scooters from Chinese two-wheeler manufacturer Yadea offered visitors unique sights and insights into sustainable mobility at the B2B event.

During an industry conference at Ride Asia, the growing importance of MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) was highlighted. Leaders from both public and private sectors encouraged EV-based entrepreneurs, with RMI India MD Ghate Akshima Ghate describing the penetration of electric scooters into villages in a tier 2 city like Jammu, her hometown. She said, “ When people see clean, affordable, and accessible products in the market, they will adopt them. These value-based products must be made in India but adopted for India and the global export market.”

Chinese companies Hanhai Magnet and Yadea also demonstrated their presence at Bharat Mandapam. While Hanhai showcased well-engineered NDFEBs (Neo Dymium Magnets) for DC motors in EVs, Yadea had a collection of beautiful and highly efficient EV scooters. Two-wheeler companies Yo Bykes, Geekay Bikes, and many more were visible, with Geekay showing the dominance of Ludhiana as a cycle manufacturing hub. 180W and 300W fuel cells are being used for the hydrogen bicycles at Yo Byks, with each hydrogen cylinder being capable of running from 40-60 km. Along with the cycle, every buyer will also get a hydrogen generator to change the cylinder. The company’s portfolio of EV products also includes an innovative electric wheelchair.

ARL, RALCO, and Poddar Tyres were some of the tyre companies present at the expo. Delhi-based Rajulex Automotive was present to offer LED and regular light-based assemblies, horn products, and grab handles to e-rickshaw owners. For a city with 120,000 registered e-rickshaws, Rajulex Automotive provides services to keep public transport in good condition.
